SAW-SET.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed September 28. 1905. Serial No. 280.482.

To all whom it may concern:

lle it known that. I. \VILLIAM M. l-o'rrnn, citizen of the United States, residing at- Syracuse. in the county of Onondaga and I plunger s maintained in position without rotatin My 1nvent1on is illustrated in the drawing herewith.

Figure I is a longitudinal section of my peculiar saw-set. F 1g. II is the same as F1".

In the figures 1 indicates the solid head; 9 the body, having side openings 3 3. the rear bearing 4 for the plunger and the front bearing (3. therefor, having elongated slot 7 with beveled lower edge 8, through hich the plunger is easily inserted in assemblin 10 is the fixed handle. These parts make up the stock, to which is pivoted the lever 12 (in a recess in the rear of the stock) ha ving face 13 to engage with the plunger lat, forced rearwardly by spring 15 bearing on washer 16. held in place by pin or key 17. This key also has the function of preventing rotation of the plunger by engagement with a groove in, or with one corner of, recess 1?) in the upper bar of the body.

20 is the anvil having guide flange 21 fitting between side lips 22 on the head and carried on the end of thumb-screw 2.3 arnnged in slot; 24 in head, whereby the anvil is vertically adjustable.

25 is the longitudinally adjustable gageplate for holding the saw up against the anvil. This is provided with slot 26, fitting guide lug on the body, which is desirable to prevent the gage-plate from turnin 27 is the thumb-screw and 28 the washer for the gage-plate.

By this construction the spring. washer and pin are inserted through the side openings and the plunger through the elongated. slot in the front bearing, without the necessity of cutting a large hole in the head for that purpose.

My saw-set is simple, strong and eeonomi cal to manufacture.

In a saw-set, the combination Wit". a stock having a head, a body formed with side openings, with frontand rear bearings for a plunger and with an elongated slot having a beveled lower edge in the front hearing and a fixer handle, of a. plunger arranged in the bearings. a lever pivotally secured on the stock to operate the a s nn'tg to retract the plung c the head and an adjustable gage-plate fitted to the lower surface of the stool: and extend-- ing over the elongated slot to engage with and support the front end of the plunger.

2. In a saw-set, the comhii'iation. with a stock having a head. a body forn'ied with side openings, with front and rear bearings for a plunger and with an elongated slot. having a beveled lower edge in the front bearing and a fixed handle, of a plunger arranged in the bearings, a lever pivot-ally secured on the stock to operate the plunger, a spring to retract the plunger. an anvil 0n the head and means to engage with the saw to hold it in proper position, said engaging means being arranged to engage and support the front end of the plunger.
